I think you're referring to the regulations in SI 2003 No 2426 (if 
not, please give the correct reference) which take effect on 11 
December. Can you please direct me to where that would forbid this? We 
are using details gathered during a previous interaction for purposes 
of "similar" service and with a "simple means of refusing" so it looks 
to me like AFFS complies already, even though I'm not sure it falls in 
the scope. I am not a lawyer, though.
